The Demon’s Path

Domino Savage

To claim my destiny, I have to go through hell. Literally. 
When I left my sheltered haven, I never thought I’d end up at a gothic cathedral, training with immortals of all kinds to prepare for an epically dangerous journey. 
We need to go to hell and find the most powerful slayer of all time, who just happens to be the demonic brother of the half-god, half-incubus angel I’m dating. 
Well, I’m not sure if sharing searingly hot nights where he feeds on my pleasure and helps bring my abyssal powers to the surface counts as dating, exactly. 
But with the fate of the world in my hands, I don’t have much time to worry about it. Especially when an old friend returns from the past, begging to join our party. 
We’ll need all the help we can get if we’re going to make it through the abyssal realms and reach hell together and alive. I have to recruit three more legendary slayers to my team before attempting ascension. 
The final opponent may just spell doom for me—and the entire world—if I’m not careful.
